| Abstract | What are the fundamental ideas of Zen Buddhist practice? What is their ultimate meaning? Reb Anderson Roshi, one of Buddhism's foremost spiritual teachers, asks penetrating questions about the foundations of Buddhist ethics:
*
What was Shakyamuni Buddha's central teaching?
*
What does it mean to take the bodhisattva vow?
*
Why should we confess and acknowledge our ancient twisted karma?
*
What is the significance of taking refuge in Buddha, dharma and sangha? Exploring the ten basic precepts-not killing, not stealing, not lying, not misusing sexuality, not using intoxicants, etc.-Anderson Roshi takes us to the heart of each ethical dilemma, where moral judgments are not easy and answers are unclear. Using anecdotal material from modern songs, Shakespeare, fairy tales, ancient Zen parables and his own experiences, he teaches the reader how to confront emotional and ethical turmoil with wisdom and compassion.
